Gat Bot is one of Venjix's Attack Bots. He is trigger and Gatling gun-themed and serves as the secondary antagonist of the episode "Blitz".
History
Venjix used the trigger-themed Gat Bot to disrupt Corinth's Shield energy. This allowed the Gat Bot and Grinders to enter the city. The Bot was supposed to distract the Rangers from the Sat Bot, who was sent to the city. The Rangers responded and fought the Gat Bot, but he was a bit too strong for the Rangers to defeat. The Bot was armed with numerous cannons. Luckily, Flynn, Ranger Blue was able to use his Time Burst attack to weaken the robot. The Rangers formed the RPM Enforcer and used it to blast the Gat Bot. The RPM Enforcer proved to be more powerful than the robot's cannons.
Venjix then revived the creation and made him grow. The Rangers went to their Zords, formed the Zenith Megazord and were too fast of a battler for the Gat Bot. The team then used the Megazord's blast to finish the robotic monster off. TV STORY-Blitz
